I'm very fond of this rose. I've been container gardening for the last 5 or so years, and so it's an extra challenge for my roses to stay healthy, and bloom well in the blistering high desert heat of Albuquerque NM, zone 7B. I have about 50 roses growing in pots, and out of all of them, this one has bloomed the most. It has a spectacular spring flush, which is a riot of rainbow pinks, corals, and yellows, and then keeps on trucking until the killing frost, cycling through almost continuous flushes. It has zero blackspot (albeit it's dry as a bone here), and just seems to love life, in spite living in a smallish (for a rose) planter being blasted 10 hours a day by full all day sun. It does drink a lot of water, though, and will wilt if I don't water enough during the hottest temps. To me, this is a 'good time' rose, very cheerful and upbeat. It's not a show rose, or a plant that's going to bowl you over with the size of the individual blooms, but as a landscape workhorse, it's positively stellar. One day I will tuck this baby into a garden bed, and I expect the blooms to be larger, and even more prolific.
